I would like to see JLB in the UFC. Have him face Tim, Kongo and maybe Mirko to see if he can avenge that kickboxing loss.

If it stays standing, JLB fucking mauls Timmah

i seriously think if JLB could keep the fight standing against any of the ufc HWs then i don't think i would ever bet against him.

Leave the thread alone. It would fit into both threads. It is focusing on UFC future possibilities and Timmers. It is totally appropriate.

Jerome talks shit about Tim about every 4 months ... you can almost set your clock to it. It keeps him in the public(mma) conscience being that he just can't seal the deal in K1. Not yet anyway.

I think he'd beat Tim soundly. I do not think he'd beat Mirko or Cheick. He'd be an exciting, but very one-dimensional addition to the division.

I think Jerome would easily beat Kongo, as stated before Kongo is only a mid level K1 striker at best and has no ground game - Jerome is an elite level striker in any org.

Le Banner could be the most dangerous striker in all mma b/c his main weapon is boxing, he would have sick ko power with 4 oz gloves. And he probably has at least better groundgame than Kongo already.

Jerome would maul Kongo and Sylvia on the feet, he's one of the best strikers around at hw, has been for a long time.

Agreed.

Furthermore, seeing as how Mark Hunt is now going to spend his time pretending to beat up guys dressed in costumes that look like a rainbow bukkaked all over them, Le Banner might be the next best thing.

The fans would really dig his style, especially if he can learn some takedown D.
